This book… was one of my absolute favorites I’ve ever read. It was full of sadness and grief, anger and frustration, but also so much love. After I picked it up I couldn’t stop reading. I fell in love with characters and related to this book a lot. I wish I could read it for the first time all over again❤️

Oh Boy!! TBH I was not sure I was going to like this book at all when I started it. It sounded like it was going to be teenage angst and I was convinced I would DNF it.
I am glad to say for once I was wrong. There was minimal angst atleast the Bella Swan kind. There were easy mistakes that could have been fixed with some communication but they were not the massive problem of typical tropes, it was resolved inevitably with some much procrastinated communication.

All in all the romance took a back seat and the more important thing was just friendship and found family, encompassed in some music. I enjoyed the book a lot more then I expected to. It was effortlessly diverse with LGBTQ+ and minority characters being prominent. 

The father daughter relationship surprised me, and the outcome of that relationship was even more surprising for me.

Ugh not me crying in the club (okay fine, in bed) on a Tuesday because of this book! I really loved so much about it, from the depression rep that truly made me feel so seen, to the romance, to the genuine found family friendships Liana forged with the boys of Third Eye. Honestly I'll tear up again if I think about it too much! Regardless, I really loved this book <3

I got as far as the main character's reaction to her accidental sabotage, which she refuses to fix by just telling the truth, and I cannot read any more of her.
